G'day all,

A question concerning WebFOCUS Graph Assistant (4.3.6).

I'm looking to produce a graph (2D horizontal bar) where, say, monthly sales amounts represent the Y-axis and months are the X-axis.

If I graph these monthly results from January 2000 to the present the graph itself is OK but the X-Axis labels get a bit squashed (imagine squeezing all those month labels onto the X-Axis).

The solution I'm looking for would only apply the month label for every 3rd X-axis tickmark but still graph the result for every month. That is, graph 12 monthly results but only label for March, June, September and December.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Cheers

Andrew W

Andrew,

You can use something like this:
GRAPH FILE MONTHLY_SALES<br />SUM SALES<br /> BY MONTH<br />ON GRAPH SET GRAPHSTYLE *<br />...  <br />setO1LabelAutoSkip(1)<br />...<br />ENDSTYLE
or try to experiment with
setO1LabelSkipBegin() and setO1LabelSkipCount().

You can find the documentation for the java API used in GRAPHSTYLE * on the [URL=http://techsupport.informationbuilders.com/ibase/masterindex/html/html_43/dt_reports435/javagraphapi.pdf ]IBI Techsupport [/URL] site. Look at the chapters 7 and 8.

Hope this helps
Grzegorz
